Who Pastors the Pastor?

MinistryCare is a new service designed for church and ministry leaders with monthly sessions that serve as consistent checkpoints for healthy soul care.

The purpose of Ministry Care is to offer non-diagnostic soul care support from mental health clinicians and maintain wholeness and equilibrium in their life and work.

A regular “checkpoint” for healthy soul care practice in ministry and the cultivation of wholeness in living.

A place to slow down and order our time, desires, and thoughts to counteract selfishness, impulsiveness, or hurried fogginess of mind.

Provided by a team of licensed mental health professionals who are “established” in their faith journey.

Focused on soul strength and growth to support the journey of living a life of faith from the heart.

Different from counseling, MinistryCare sessions provide soul support rather than a clinical diagnosis.
